The Fox Goddess

Chapter 170 Time Stopped



"Where are you going?" Yuki raised her voice and stopped the King from leaving.

"Why do you ask that? You are not obliged to know." King Dagart answered with coldness.

"Look King, I think you are getting something wrong here. How can I be sure that you will complete the deal? Who knows you might run away from me after I completed mine." Yuki said, which caused King Dagart to get more angry.

He then released his bloodlust and waves his hand in the air, and soon a dozen of Blades that were created with pure Mana was directed at Yuki's neck.

"Young Lady, I'm not that kind of a person to break our deal. So why won't you be a good girl and just do as I say." He warned, this time he was finally getting serious at talking.

"Isn't this a bit rude don't you think? Forcing a young woman to do what you want? I wonder what would happen if these words were to leak out." Yuki laughed and grabbed a recording crystal from her system and tossed it in the air.

"So what do you think will happen? The great King of the Beast made a deal with a mere commoner and didn't do his deal with the end and tricked the person. Wouldn't ruin your name, HAHAHA!" Yuki laughed loudly.

King Dagart widened his eyes and directed one of his blades at the recording crystal to destroy it, but Yuki was faster and she immediately put the crystal into her Spatial Ring and put the Ring into the System. Normally she would wear it, but this time she chose not to as things can be dangerous.

"Are you blackmailing me!?" He shouted in anger, never in his life he has been this humiliated as much as Yuki did.

"Who said that, I was merely telling you what will happen if you do what we agreed on." Yuki walked towards the King and tapped his shoulders.

Something snapped inside King Dagart, he then slapped Yuki across the room. Of course being a King, he was a lot stronger than Yuki so he got no problem hurting her.

"If I don't teach you a lesson today, I will never be able to face my kind ever again. You are the first ever person to mock me like what you did, even those masters at the other Race will have to speak with me in respect!"

"HAHAHA! Sadly I'm not that kind of person to bow to anyone." Yuki laughed, she then wiped the blood that seeped out of her mouth.

Suddenly as Yuki was about to run away, she saw something weird in her surroundings. No one was moving, but the strangest thing is that she can see the dust in the air floating as if they were frozen in place.

"What the hell is happening here?" Yuki walked around and was still shocked, she was currently facing King Dagart face to face, but he is still not moving.

"It is as if time stopped." When Yuki finished saying those words, she saw Aika had come out of the Flute and flew into Yuki while crying.

"Mommy!" Quickly catching Aika's body she hugged her.

"What's wrong?" She asked worriedly.

"Mommy got hurt, I don't like seeing Mommy get hurt." She then looked up to Yuki, but this only shocked Yuki even more.

Aika's previously blood ruby eyes was replaced with Pink coloured eyes which put a surprise to Yuki.

"What happened to your eyes?" Yuki asked worriedly.

"I don't know Mommy." Aika sobbed more, currently she doesn't care about her surroundings as she only hugged Yuki. Then as Yuki was about to caress Aika's head to calm her down, she found her arms unable to move, no it was moving slowly.

"Is this what I think it is?" Meanwhile Aika can move freely but Yuki was slowed down.

Ding!

[The guess of the host is right, the reason it's like this is due to Aika's Time Manipulation.]

"I knew it, then that means that she is already so strong. To be able to stop the time even if it's just a few metres, but the most surprising thing is she even stopped these three monsters." Yuki sighed.

She was rather glad that she can still talk normally even though she is slowed down.

"Tell me honestly Aika, did you do this?" Yuki asked gently, she was not angry or disappointed, in fact she was really happy. But Aika misinterprets it as Yuki is mad at her.

"Mommy don't get angry at me, I only wished for that man to stop hurting you. I didn't know that it was actually going to happen." Tears started to stream down Aika's eyes.

'I'm not mad Aika, I was just surprised by what you did. How can I be mad at you if you helped me?" Yuki said she was trying to comfort her.

"Really?"

"Of course, then why don't you try to de-activate your powers." Yuki had a rough guess that Aika's power lies in her eyes. As her eye's colour changes, the power that she controls also changes. But as for controlling everything at the same time, Yuki doesn't know if it's possible.

"I don't know Mommy. I'm sorry." Aika drops her head low, she was thinking whether her Mom was disappointed at her.

"It's alright, for now just go back to the Flute and don't come back. I'll summon you later so we can sleep together alright?" Yuki said.

"You're not mad at me?" Aika asked again.

"Never." Yuki smiles, Yuki then sees that Aika's eye started to flicker between Red and Pink.

"Most likely the power is getting weakened, I can also now move normally. But as for them, HAHAHA." Yuki laughed.

When Aika vanished, she saw that she was able to move normally again.

"I wonder if it's command or through emotions? Probably just control, but since she is young she still can't control it." She then shot out a thousand Ice Daggers in the air and aimed it at the King and the Guards that were getting ready to attack.

"Aika, can you wish for them to move normally again." Yuki said.

"But, what if Mommy gets hurt again?" Aika said with a sad face.

"Don't worry, I can assure you that they will definitely attack again." Yuki assured Aika.

"Ok, I'll trust Mommy" She then began to mumble for them to move.

When Yuki saw muscle movements from them, she shot out her Bloodlust directed only to the King.

"I'll only tell it once, if you don't end the deal, I will release this crystal to the public." Yuki warned with coldness.

All of them can finally move, but they had no idea that it had already been a few minutes since the time stopped.

"What the hell happened?" As soon as they were able to move, they immediately saw a thousand Ice Daggers aiming at them, ready to be fired at any second.
